Lord, let me be arrogant [End]

Concerned about Zifei's injury, Xiaoxiao considerately slowed down her pace, but she was still attracted by the colorful things on the street and wandered here and there.

Duan Zifei always followed her, no matter who she was looking at or not, even if she just took a look, as soon as Xiaoxiao left, he would immediately take out the money and throw it to the boss, saying, "Someone will come Take." Then he followed the pretty figure in front again.

After eating a large bowl of bean curd to her heart's content, Xiaoxiao finally regained her strength.On the opposite side, Duan Zi raised his hand involuntarily, and wiped the dirt around her mouth with his sleeve.This move made Xiaoxiao blush again, she lowered her head, but opened her mouth.

"Master, Miss, let's buy a flower." A pretty girl came to the two of them and said timidly. Although the clothes were worn out, they were still clean, but her figure was too thin, as if she was malnourished.There is a flower basket in the crook of the arm, which is full of freshly picked flowers, and dewdrops are still hanging on the petals.

Duan Zifei looked away from Xiaoxiao, and when he looked at her, it was as if she had never existed, even though she was right in front of his eyes.

Xiaoxiao looked at the girl and smiled, "How much does it cost?"

The girl looked at her, perhaps moved by her friendliness, gritted her teeth, and stretched out a finger, "A tael of silver."

Xiaoxiao was taken aback, not to mention that she didn't understand the economic conditions of the ancient market, no matter how expensive the flowers in her basket were, they couldn't possibly be worth a tael of silver. You know, in ancient times, a tael of silver was basically an ordinary family of three. One month's living expenses!

"What? One or two?!" It was a middle-aged man overheard at the next table who spoke. He pointed at the flowers in the women's basket and sneered mercilessly, "There are only a few rotten flowers. There are many flowers in the mountains. , you actually sell it for a tael of silver?! In my opinion, instead of selling flowers, you might as well sell yourself in a brothel, that would be more than a tael of silver!"

His words caused ridicule from all around, and the eyes staring at the woman became more and more ambiguous.Someone immediately echoed, "That's right, this girl is quite handsome, if you go to list, brother, I will be the first to join you!"

"Haha! Let's go to a brothel, the business there must be better than selling flowers!"

The woman stood there, biting her lips tightly, with tears in her eyes, her hands tightly clutching the flower basket, her whole body trembling slightly because of the humiliation.

No matter what the chaos around, Duan Zifei didn't even raise his eyes, but Xiaoxiao couldn't help it, she slapped the table and stood up, "What's wrong with a tael of silver? The flowers belong to someone else." , even if it sells for ten taels of silver, that is the girl's freedom, what's bothering you? Buy it if you want to buy it, and keep your mouth shut if you don't want to buy it!"

The woman raised her head suddenly and looked at Xiaoxiao gratefully.

The middle-aged man curled his lips and said contemptuously, "Hey, that sounds so nice, why don't you buy it, miss?"

Xiaoxiao sneered, and reached out to Duan Zifei, "Lend me some money!" Asking for money must be done with confidence.

A silver bar rested on her white palm.Xiaoxiao didn't even look at it, and stuffed it all to the woman, "Hey, take it, I bought all these flowers."

All around, there was a sound of breathing.The man who kept yelling also shut his mouth wisely, and hurriedly finished his meal and left.

"This, so many?" The woman quickly waved her hands as if frightened, "No, no, there are too many, I only need one or two..."

"Oh, I'll take it for you, and I'll take the rest..." Xiaoxiao thought for a while, then smiled, pointed to the flower basket and said, "I'll buy this basket."

"Miss..." The woman was so moved that she held the ingot of silver. After a long time, she lowered her eyes and said slowly, "Xiang'er, my little girl. These flowers were all planted by my father, but the day before yesterday he..." She Weeping sadly, he said intermittently, "One tael of silver was borrowed from the neighbors for my father's burial. I sold everything that could be sold at home. I really have no way to pay back the money, so I can only sell my father's favorite flowers. ...So, miss, Xiang'er is really not a liar!"

Xiaoxiao hurriedly patted her shoulder comfortingly, "Okay, okay, I know you are a good girl, go home quickly."

"En!" Xiang'er nodded vigorously, looked at Xiaoxiao gratefully, then turned her gaze back to Duan Zifei, "Thank you, young master." Turning around, she ran out of the small teahouse.

Xiaoxiao sat down again, and suddenly had a feeling, "If I hadn't met you, would I have hoped for help from strangers like her when I was in the most difficult time?"

Living alone in this world must be the most painful thing.

Duan Zifei pursed his lips, crossed the table and held her hand directly, and raised his eyes, "As long as there is me, there is no such 'if'."

His hands were cold, but Xiaoxiao's heart was as warm as spring, allowing him to hold her gently but firmly.

After eating, drinking, and walking around, nearly an hour later, Xiaoxiao was afraid that he was working too hard with the injury, so she yelled that she was tired and wanted to go back to rest, and the two of them walked back.

Just when he reached the city gate, a person chased after him panting, "Miss, young master, wait a minute!"

Xiaoxiao looked back, "Xiang'er? Xiang'er, why did you come after me? Is it because you don't have enough money? Oh, it's okay, I still have..."

Xiang'er caught up, panted heavily and shook her head, "No, it's not."

"Then what business do you want with us?"

Xiang'er gathered herself together, and suddenly knelt down with a "plop", kowtowed to the two of them without saying a word.

"Xiang'er...you..." Xiaoxiao was stunned, and wanted to step forward to help her up, but Xiang'er stubbornly knelt on the ground and said, "Miss, young master, Xiang'er has something to say."

Xiaoxiao was in a hurry, "Oh, if you have anything to say, you can talk about it when you get up."

"Miss is a good person. She gave me so much money not to buy flowers. I can't repay her. I just want to be a servant girl by the side of Miss and Young Master. Miss, please accept Xiang'er." Kowtow again.Xiaoxiao hurriedly stopped her, "Xiang'er, I really gave you money just to buy flowers, how could I let you be a maid?"

"No!" Xiang'er shook her head resolutely, "Miss, I am willing, I don't even have the last relative in this world, if the lady refuses to take me in, I will really become a helpless person. "

Xiaoxiao raised her head in embarrassment to look at Duan Zifei, who obviously had an expression of "whatever you want".She looked at Xiang'er's pleading face again, and in the end, still overflowing with sympathy, she nodded and said, "Okay, then I will take you back." She deeply understands the pain of not having a loved one. All the time, there are always friends by my side.Even if she came here, Zifei took good care of her. Now that she can help Xiang'er, why doesn't she do it?

"Thank you miss, thank you!" Xiang'er was very excited.
